"During our telecast, we did not adequately address the situation in the room. For this, we are sorry. This was an opportunity for us to set an example for our guests, viewers and our Academy family around the world, and we fell short — unprepared for the unprecedented," they wrote.


quote:

"We want to express our deep gratitude to Mr. Rock for maintaining his composure under extraordinary circumstances. We also want to thank our hosts, nominees, presenters and winners for their poise and grace during our telecast."

"This action we are taking today in response to Will Smith's behavior is a step toward a larger goal of protecting the safety of our performers and guests, and restoring trust in the Academy. We also hope this can begin a time of healing and restoration for all involved and impacted."

I don’t know that Smith’s ego can be healed or restored.

I’m never pulling for divorce but that may be the best path for them.

In his case, I'm pulling for a divorce in lieu of suicide or Benoit Family sequel situation.

Jada's BF also must accept any awards he wins in those 10 years.

More boyfriends than awards. May cause hurt feelings.

I still don't get Will's reasoning behind this. Going up and slapping Rock because he made a joke you were just caught laughing at isn't going to make him look more of a man, or anything.

It just made him look even more pathetic than he already was.

I want to say the punishment should be harsher but short of taking his Oscar away, I can’t see what else they could have done

Doing everything he can to avoid divorce? Jada seems like the type to make his life more of a living hell than it already is if he chooses that route.

Damn. So what's the narrative now for all the people dying on the hill that this was all fake.

He’s not going up and slapping the shite out of somebody at the Oscars in the name of his wife if he’s just in that relationship for convenience. He’s being manipulated and controlled. And he’s dangerously in love.

That is the only way to sell it.

You think people would buy it if the ban was only 1 year?

If they really want to sell it, they need to take away his Oscar.

Big deal. They should ban him from making shitty movies for the next ten years and take away his oscar. I hope his whole family crawls in a hole and disappears.
